Build a

Patio Chair

Project Level: Intermediate

Enjoy the beauty of the great

outdoors from the comfort of a

chair you build yourself. This

chair is great for lounging on a

relaxing afternoon, reading or

adding entries to your daily

journal. You can build the chair

exactly as specified in our

instructions, scale it down for a

child or change the

measurements to create a fully

customized outdoor lounging

experience.

This chair is so comfortable, you'll want

to build a whole set.

Make the Side Frames

1. Face glue the seat assembly supports to the inside faces

of one front side frame upright and one back side frame

upright. Use 3d finish nails to hold the boards together

while the glue dries.

3. Measure and

mark 2 1/2" in

from each end of

one of the

upright

connectors and

draw a seat

contour on it

that connects

the marks. (The contour's exact shape is a personal

preference.) Use a jigsaw or band saw to cut along the

contour line. Use the connector as a pattern to mark the

remaining upright connector and the center seat support.

Mark the front end of each piece for future reference.

Face-clamp the pieces together and gang sand them so

their contours match.

The upright connector with seat slats

already installed.

4. Lay the uprights on your workbench with the inside faces

up. Lay an upright connector across a set of front and

back uprights so that its bottom edge abuts the top ends

of each seat assembly support. Leave 3/4" between the

upright connector's ends and the outside edge of each

upright. Remember to orient the connector so that the

end marked "front" is toward the front upright.

5. Square the uprights and connector. Predrill holes through

the connector and secure it to the uprights with glue and

screws.

6. Use the remaining uprights and connector to assemble

the second side frame as a mirror image of the first.

Install the Seat Rails and Center Seat Support

1. Predrill countersink holes near the ends of the seat rails

so you can screw through the rails into the ends of the

upright connectors.

3. Secure the rails

to the side

frames with glue and screws. Check the assembly for

square and adjust as needed.

Secure the rails to the side frames with

glue and screws.

4. Measure to the center of each rail and mark the inside

face of the rail.

5. Screw and glue each of the 6" long 3/4"x3/4" support

blocks flush with the bottom of the rails, centered on the

marks from step 3.

6. Cut a 3/4"x3/4" notch in the bottom of each end of the

center seat support. Position the center seat support

centered on the rails. Bore countersink holes in the front

and back seat rails and secure the center seat support

with glue and screws.

Install the Seat Slats

1. Use a router and a 1/4" round over bit to round over the

1 1/2" seat slats and the 3 1/2" seat slats.

2. Position the front 3 1/2" slat on the chair so it overhangs

the front seat rail by 3/8". Secure the slat with finish nails

and glue.

4. Lay a piece of

1x4 on edge so

its back face

abuts the front

edge of each

back upright.

This piece is a

spacer. Position

a 1 1/2" slat so

its back edge

abuts the front

face of the

spacer. Secure

the slat with finish nails and glue. Remove the spacer.

1.) Back upright

2.) Spacer

3.) Rear 1 1/2" slat

5. Install the rest of the

1 1/2" slats equally spaced to fill in the area between the

front 3 1/2" slat and the rear 1 1/2" slat.

Install the Backrest

1. Rout or cut a 1/4" wide by 3/4" deep groove centered on

one edge of the backrest top rail. Use a router and a 1/4"

round over bit to round over the rail's edge on the

opposite edge from the groove . The edge with the groove

is the bottom and the rounded edge is the top.

2. Position the rail so the top corner is 5/8" in from the back

edge of the back uprights and the bottom corner is 1 1/8"

in from the back edge of the back uprights. Bore

countersink holes in the back uprights so you can drive

screws into the ends of the rail. Secure the rail in place

with screws and glue.

3. Mill 3/4" long by 1/4" thick tenons into one end of each

backrest slat. The tenoned end of the slat is the top.

4. Use a router and a 1/4" round over bit to round over the

edges of the 1 1/2" backrest slats.

6. Place a slat at

each end of the

top rail 1 1/2" in

from the end of

the rail. Secure

the slats by

gluing the

tenons into the

rail's groove and

driving 4d finish

nails through the

slat into the rear

1 1/2" seat slat.

Install the backrest slats.

7. Install the remaining backrest slats, evenly spaced across

the backrest.

8. Position the back 3 1/2" seat slat in place so its front

edge abuts the back faces of the backrest slats. Secure

the slat in place with finish nails and glue.

Attach the Armrests

2. Attach two 3

1/2" long

3/4"x3/4" cleats

to each front

upright with 4d

finish nails and

glue. The top

edges of the

cleats should be

flush with the

ends of the

uprights.

3. Attach one 3

1/2" long

Attach cleats to both sides of each front

upright.

3/4"x3/4" cleat to the outside

face of each back upright, level

with the cleats on the front

uprights.

4. Bore a 3/16" diameter hole vertically in the center of each

cleat.

5. Measure in from the back end of one armrest 3 1/2" and

use a square to make a line across the armrest. Measure

in from the inside edge of the armrest and mark it at 1"

and 1 3/4". Use a square to mark lines from the back

edge of the board to the line you've already drawn across

the board. Use a band saw or jigsaw to cut out the 3 1/2"

by 3/4" notch made by the lines.

7. Test fit the

armrest. The

notch should fit

around the back

rail with the wide

tail over the

back cleat. The

front of the

armrest should

overhang the

front rail by 3/4"

to 1".

Test fit the armrest.

8. Make the second armrest as a mirror of the first.

9. Secure the armrests in place with glue and screws driven

through the cleats into the bottom faces of the armrests.

10. Lay the 2" by 3/4" backrest stiffener across the tops of

the narrow armrest tails. Glue and nail the stiffener in

place with 4d finish nails.

11. Once the chair is built, sand and finish it as you

like or leave uncoated and allow it to weather to a

beautiful silver-gray.
